I have recently come by many salty and wannabe pro players. Some people take it to Miiverse to brag their win over me. And they tell me how much I suck at smash.
Tried reporting the post, but apparently the admins on Miiverse are blind.
Any tips?

Makes a post trash talking me

Complains on my post that I had blocked him using his secondary account (and apparently he is so butthurt about it.)

Thanks for all the replies!

Assholes like them take the fun away when they take this **** way too seriously, mainly sore losers who just refuse to take their losses like a real man. Those trash talking about how the person who they played against suck at Smash just cuz they beat them? Now that's a whole different story. I mean, what purpose do they have to make such disrespectful comments about others and their skill level, huh?

Just ignore them. It's not like anyone cares what they say or think of you. :drshrug:

Man. Your best bet is to just keep beating the ever living snot out of these people until they either learn or quit.

...Oh, this is online. The people who make these posts are between the ages of 10 and 15. Especially ones who just sign in with another Mii and pose as their older brother. Better off just laughing them off and moving on.

Drink some water, salt makes us thirst for water. Or if you drink too much you will get a 7.8/10 from IGN!!!
....
Simply don't care. You didn't do anything wrong to make him/her so mad. Instead, be classy and retire yourself from the lobby, not without a "Good Game!" message.
At Miiverse, ignore him/her. It's Miiverse, after all: immature people are everywhere.

Yet Miiverse admins will give me an infraction for saying "Later Hater" to someone? Wow.

This is like primary school all over again :/ ignore it and move on. No one takes For Glory seriously anyway. Too much lag to really rate any ones true skill.

Is the correct answer not facing them again and styling on them? .o.

What the heck? Those Miiverse posts, I swear. I absolutely hate ragers, I'm going to report the first one, hopefully multiple reports will get the mods attention.

Then again, we're talking about Miiverse..

Edit: Reported and added a comment to hopefully make him stop.

Just some kids trying to start childish drama and/or WWE-style feuds. As others have said, ignore them man. You're better than that obviously! The high road for you!

I had a person once change his name tag to "U SUCK" after he beat me one match.

I switched to my girl ZSS and beat him 3 games in a row until he quit. He had nothing to say after that.

My point? Just blow it off and don't play them, or turn around and humiliate them by beating. There isn't much you can do against people online.

If it were me, I'd just laugh at their butthurt post/name tag change and move on. :kirby:

There's really no reason to take For Glory Orgies seriously, so you could just not take this person seriously and let him live in an imaginary world where online records make you the very best, like no one ever was.

This, everyone i talk to always says they have a 70% + win record on FG. Woopty Doo.

I checked mine last night and i'm hovering on 47%, does this mean anything? No.

Salt goes best on top of popcorn, so have it ready when you destroy your opponents and let their salt savour your taste buds! :)

Anytime I personally get salty because someone won some matches over me and then played my character in the last match and beat me, I usually friend them so I can beat them later, knowing they werent actually any better than me. Haven't been in that situation in a while but you get some douchebags who know they got some fortunate wins and then talk **** and leave.

As for salt in real life, which is really where it matters, I have no room for that **** anymore, and they can go **** themselves. WHen I was younger and played smash 64 i Used to get salty when my brother would beat me with his pikachu many times in a row and he wanted to stop playing...I wanted him to keep playing of course until I started winning. But after smash 64 I really lost all my salt with video games in general, and never get mad if someone beats me, I try to think about the reasons why I lost (including experience) and to win the next match. I had one idiot who faced me in a local tourney a month ago or so and he barely managed to beat me because he camped, and of course I have no problem with that whatsoever because it worked for him...but then he was ******** and moaning and crying that other people were doing it after the tournament was nearly over, and how they weren't playing the game the right way, and I called him out on that bull****. Then he told me "well against Donkey Kong the only good strategy is to camp"...yeah, bull**** dude.

Coming from Dark Souls, what I usually do to deal with salt is laugh. Laugh and laugh and laugh.

Seriously, the first time I got hatemail in Dark Souls I screengrabbed it and shared it with everyone I knew. I live for that stuff.
